Discord literally has forums. Most official game servers that I've seen tend to make use of them.
I've not seen one of those in use in the half dozen servers I'd looked at; but I've barely used that shit show of a platform.
Regardless, it's not publicly accessible/indexable and I'm not willing to enter into their new binding arbitration agreement just to look around. (the new ToS)
Discord can go fuck themselves.
My pet peeve is when the go to response in those exact same forums and chat is "we have an answerflow" followed by a link. I know you have an answer flow, and its indexing and search is shit under ideal circumstances. If you don't discuss the thing and make a modicum of effort to organize the server then answer flow is even worse and even less useful.
Not good ones. It's not a good format for actual forums
What exactly is wrong with them, in your opinion? A game I play uses a Discord forum channel for their bug reports, and it seems to support all the features I'd need out of a forum: sorting options (date posted vs most recent/"bumped" threads), search, chronological comments, tags, media support...
The only real issue I see with Discord forums is that they're not public, so you can't view them without having a Discord account and joining the server. But as far as functioning as a traditional web forum, they seem to check all the boxes.
This is a huge issue, honestly. Discord's search function is awful and you have to find the right server before you can even try to find the information. Any standard search engine can find a post in a classic forum.
Also, scrolling through giant pages of constantly updating chatter is a miserable interface. Split it up into pages!
ALSO, Discord has poor tools for managing everything. You can't merge topics or move posts, that should be day 1 stuff.
